I have a MS63 in the same year and want to upgrade. What are your thoughts of the grade and color. Help me pull the trigger. IMO it looks like an uncommon coin for a very common date. Thoughts.

I like it. It's not my area of expertise, but if I were looking for a 65 I'd consider that, and if I were looking for a 64 and saw that presented as one, I'd snap it up right away. The surfaces look nice, and the color is pleasant and unobtrusive. I have a Saint of the same year, and this is far nicer.
I like it. Nothing too distracting, at least not on my little phone screen. The go/no-go decision would come down to price.
Nice coin!
Other than a few small abrasions---She's really clean and crisp. Looks to have nice luster as well. MS 64?

Are premiums still declining for the saints?

Beautiful coin. I heard gold rose today and FUN show coming so that may stop the slow decline. Was told money that would normally go into gold is going to Bitcoin.
PS Go for at least an MS-65 and even better an MS-66 at present prices.
An excellent type coin. Well struck with minimal marks and a sharp nose. If you think the price is right go for it.
Very nice 65. I love the color.
Sometime I see a very slight variance between MS63 vs MS64. Upgrade to MS65 for a clear upgraded quality; but of course the price varies significantly too. Good luck and let us know.....
PCGS Verification shows it as MS65 pop 47.347 $1750
I like the color on it. Only a few stray hits. I only own 1 saint. It is also a 1924.
Super common date. Mine is a 64, with only minimum hits and similar toning.
But it has a larger hit on the sun on reverse, keeping it a 64. So I say if the price is good, pull the trigger!

Looks like a really nice coin with nice color and luster and a full strike. No hack marks across any of the rays on either side, no punch in the nose. I suspect this is an above average 65.

Agree, for some reason I really like the sharp nose, for some reason most Saints come with a rhinoplasty kind of nose.
Nice, high-end 65
Very nice, common date, looks like a 65 to me, good luck !!!
At first glance it looked very nice.
At second glance I asked myself if that was rub on the knee area.
I dont yhink its rub. Its a MS65.
Looks solid for the grade.
Any sticka?
Not CACed....yet.
Nice strike and color, I would go for it.
Very nice! Step up to the plate.
Of course it's a beautiful coin but I wonder how the abrasions on the obverse rim and the dings on the reverse rim would be taken into account?
Smitten with DBLCs.
Made my decision and bought it. Can always return if it doesn’t look great in hand. I think I’ll be happy though. Thanks for the opinions and advice.
Very nice gold coin.... glad to see you bought it.... From the picture, I think you will be pleased. Do let us know... Cheers, RickO
Great coin but would not try to upgrade. I like it as is.
Best place to buy !
